when legs start to get real sore late in the summer- i take an ICE BATH (sounds crazy, but i guarantee it will work). D1 football teams have cold tubs for their players to soak their legs in, but we don't have that luxury- we just have a regular old bath tub.
So, get 1 or 2 of those big bags of ice at the store (if you like doing this you can just fill up a couple 2 liters with water and freeze them instead of buying ice). Throw the ice in the tub and fill the water up so the water level is at your belly button when you're sitting down, then HOP IN!
I won't lie, it will be tough to keep yourself from jumping out in the first 5 min, then it's easy sailing for the next 10. Make sure you wear a pair of briefs in there to keep the family jewels somewhat protected (helps a little).
Try this and your legs will feel like a million bucks!
